My husband watched Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid with me last weekend and I'm still. STILL. Thinking about how right at the end, even right as the curtains come down, Butch can't think of anything he'd rather do than keep doing this by the Kid's side. He doesn't say just HE'S going to Australia in his little fantasy even as he knows they're both dead. It's still them, together, always. Just like he's always said, just how it's always been. They need each other, each one half of the others whole. Ain't no kinda life either of thems ever had that felt better than struggling on through it all together.
#jay talkin#its a poignant movie about two men who cant do anything but what they are doing#theyre not cut out for anything else. needed a different statt in life maybe#or just would never take to anything else as much as rhis#either way doesnt matter. they were dead and doomed from the start#all you can do is pick where youll die boys. all you can do#and it wont even be at the hands of the best men set on your tail#because death follows you in every form. you're too far in to be made honest men of now#and afterall. at least in this life you have your family. you your boy and etta#what? you gonna settle down in a normative society?#try to make your non normative family fit that mold youve never fit?#nah we all know that aint how this story ends#and even right at the end in pain and fear youll know youd want nothing to come next#that aint by his side#AND IN THIS ESSAY I WILL CONNECT THIS TO MY BELOVED WRENCHERS- i am dragged away
